Facebook usage statistics by country - Dec 31st 2009

I have been publishing Facebook usage statistics by quarter for a while now. Facebook user number growth is still extraordinary and the table below shows the top 30 countries by number of active Facebook users.

Love this thanks. Might be cool to add two more columns, one for size of country population, a second for % country penetration of facebook, put things in context that way per country, should be interesting. Thanks again and Happy New Year from Atlanta GA!

Hi Nick, it's great to see you regularly posting Facebook stats and then replying to all comments too :). It'd be great if you provide me with the stats related to Pakistan. Would appreciate if Age and gender wise percentages are also provided. Thanks!

Facebook data changes regularly. These figures are correct at the time they were pulled - at the end of December 2009. Facebook usage numbers change every day so this will account for different people reporting slightly differing numbers.

Is there any chance that I can get demographic data on facebook and twitter (/ social networking) users of Bangladesh. If not possible, do you have any known website from where I can get so. It would be great help to complete my paper on Online activism in Bangladesh for Amnesty International.

Facebook says that is has over 350 million active users. Your list indicates that over 101 million users are from the U.S. However, Facebook also says that "About 70% of Facebook users are outside the United States." Can you clarify the discrepancy? Many thanks! I found the stats here: http://www.facebook.com/press/info.php?statistics

In response to Anonymous who said 'Facebook says that is has over 350 million active users. Your list indicates that over 101 million users are from the U.S. However, Facebook also says that "About 70% of Facebook users are outside the United States." Can you clarify the discrepancy?'

My figures show 29% of Facebook users are US. Facebook says 'about 30%' are US users. I guess the discrepancy is from Facebook approximating using the word 'about' in their statistics?

Hi Nick, would it be possible for you to let me know the stats for facebook for afghanistan, jordan, lebanon, china, uzbekistan, singapoor, the maldives, Philippines and yemen and iran if they have it. this would greatly help me for my media dissertation.

also would it be possible for you to tell me how you collate these stats as www.checkfacebook.com/ has slightly different stats.

Hi Nick, this is really interesting - thankyou! I'm preparing a report at the moment for uni, and I am trying to find out the statistics for user ages on facebook for the UK - I don't suppose you have any records on this do you?

Nick, it would be great if you added another column to your table, showing the % of country population on Facebook. For example, its useful to see that FB penetration is about 30% in US and UK, but only 20% in Turkey.
